Minimax sudoku

(Published on 12. November 2022, 23:27 by Qodec)

Inspired by a clover Patreon minimax puzzle.

  • Normal sudoku rules apply: Each row, column, and region indicated by thick borders in the grid must contain the digits 1 to 9 once each.
  • Minimax: Each clue is the sum of the largest and smallest digit out of the three digits closest to the clue in that row/column.

You can play this puzzle online using:

Solution code: Rows 2 and 6. I.e. the 9 digits in row 2 from left to right, followed by the 9 digits in row 6 from left to right, for example: 123456789123456789
